Executive President becoming a scare-crow (pambaya) gradually. Madam Hirunika should be happy now. What about scores of guys pardoned by Yahapalanaya Hon. SiriSena?
Amarakoon,
Our PM, pretend RW-CHURCHILL, is a pambaya max.
He attended SLPP MP meeting with the Go-Home leader and his clan including all brothers in the Go-Home person’s Bunker.
All these persons should be stripped naked and walked on the streets from their luxury hideouts to the Beira Lake and dumped with a few crocodiles.
Hey Roxie,
You are being unkind to the crocodiles that are to be dumped with the leaders in Beira Lake.
Having consumed the rotten human flesh for the R-Pavula and Churchill, they will die of food poisoning !!!
Well, as I pointed out earlier Churchill was a mass murderer who facilitated killing thousands of folks in India creating an artificial famine. Like manner, RW too allegedly facilitated killing hundreds of JVP youths in Batalanda. So, they are same and I do not have any objection RW proclaiming himself as Churchill for that matter! We don’t have to strip naked Rajapakses & RW because they are already naked. Regarding Crocks, I don’t know there is any because water in the Beira-lake is polluted.
